This is my 4th blog about feature films, TV series and documentaries with clothes of mainly kids and teens in Western movies. Have fun. You will find here informations, trailer videos, low-res images and personal comments/ratings. You will not find here complete videos, download links, shopping links etc.

Thanks very much Jody, for his comment and photo album (where pic 1 is from).

Nice movie and handsome actor, but somehow I don’t like him that much. It’s also not a real Western and no typical Western clothes except for the hat (which I didn’t remember and so haven’t made a post earlier). Luckily already in color.

Famous family Christmas movie-Year: 1983-Country: USA-Who in clothing: Ralphie ~12-Available on DVD: yes
–B&W or color: color-I own: no, partly TV recording-Clothing occurence: very low-Rating: 4/10 ?-Rating:****-Comment: ~12 yo Peter Billingsley as 9 yo main character Ralphie in white Western clothes including hat and scarf and cow chaps in a short dream scene. Also his younger brother in rare bib overalls (other blog rating 3). Set in the 1940s.

By updating my entry on my other blog, I found this scene by coincidence.

Great and funny movie, although I don’t like this 2 boys. Some great scenes like a tongue stuck at a frozen pole. (Some more movies with this on my sailor suit blog). Another movie with this family after the 1966 novel by Jean Shepherd is Ollie Hopnoodle’s Haven of Bliss (rating 5).

Adventure film starring Errol Flynn-Year: 1940-Country: USA-Who in clothing: Cobby ~12, woman-What clothes: shirt, pants, hats-Available on DVD: yes-B&W or color: b&w-I own: no-Clothing occurence: low-Rating: 5/10-Rating:*****-Comment: Dickie Jones in dark pants with a rope or similar belt. Hands in pockets, he also had to lift up his pants (then hands not in pockets). And wearing a hat. There’s also a woman with a cowboy hat (probably Miriam Hopkins), also riding. Also starring Humphrey Bogart.

Quite interesting, good scenes and handsome actor. But I think rather few good scenes (like at 36 minutes and 1h10).

All pics showing The Kentuckian (1955 starring Burt Lancaster), previously rated 3, now 5. Quite good western but I don’t like Donald MacDonald (pic 2). One better, more handsome boy is Lee Erickson at the fighting scene (pic 1). Also many kids (boys+girls) outside the school. Some boys appear like wearing overalls but they are only pants with suspenders.

I also have seen Red River (1948) starring John Wayne and teen boy Mickey Kuhn. I have uploaded a pic of a colorized version. Good plot, but I don’t like this boy.

Some westerns have/will be aired today and tommorow on German RTL Nitro. 1 was quite good. But first this one.

After my entry King of the Sierras (1938) rating 5, I searched for more movies starring Harry Harvey Jr.. I found one very good pic with him and the other boy and as I haven’t found it online I just bought it.

A typical, poor 1940s-1hour-b&w movie. Only some few minutes at the beginning of the movie. They are fighting and rolling on the ground. One boy singing. Not even a close up of the face of the other one. The rest is set around 20 years later when they are grown-up.

And very poor image and sound quality (at least the edition from Alpha Video / oldies.com). DVD title Riders of the Plains. Probably PD. Also starring Al St. John as Fuzzy. At least 2 handsome boys in jeans. DVD is pressed and not a DVDr like many others from them. Plot is quite good.

About

Ratings are my personal thoughts. TV only stands for TV series. Films are all kind of films (feature, short or TV).
Riding tagged only for notable scenes of kids, teens or women as riding men is nothing special. Kids only means westerns starring only kids. Not Western means not a real western movie but still western setting and/or western clothes. Italy means Spaghetti westerns. Women only tagged, if either strong women with a cowboy hat or other clothes of interest like overalls or sailor dresses. Modern setting means 1900 or later.
